Giovanni Manzares for 'Przegląd Sportowy', the main sport daily newspaper in Poland:

'I'm going to spend a month in Europe, riding for Team Småland in Sweden and Poole Pirates and Ipswich Witches in Great Britain.
In 2021 I want to go back to racing full-time in Europe.'

Don’t worry it’s all lost in translation. He’s coming over next season just to show his face with a view to getting something permanent in 2021. Nowt more than that

Nothing close if this team were to ride against the Poole team this past season.Probably get reasonable racing in this league with this team as all riders will be of  similar standard,premier league reserves King and Worrall apart or is that being to harsh.Still if Matt can't find a buyer this will save speedway at Wimborne road but will the fans who we are told voted for this league turn up and support it.

Definitely - as long as there is no price increase!!

Lets wait and see who the 3rd heat leader is first!!!;)

Incidentally the Poole R.E.F. (Riders Equipment Fund) hold their first Winter quiz night and forum on Wednesday 20th November with Co-Promoter Danny Ford in attendance to update fans following the AGM. - maybe even a rider announcement or 2?

Interesting little question from Ragdoll on the Glasgow thread. 

Hypothetical question......If Nicolai Klindt was to change his mind and ride in the Championship this year, what average would he come in on?  Would it be a conversion of this year’s Premiership average of 7.43......or his 2018 Championship average which was 6.94?

Anyone know the answer ???

Thinking about a farewell meeting for Bjarne

Poole (Europe) vs Poole (Rest of the World) (not riding order and literally the first 16 that came to mind - plenty of others I'm sure)

Europe - M Janowski, P Pawlicki, N Klindt, L Madsen, B Pederson, C Harris, H Andersen, V Milic

ROW - J Doyle, C Holder, G Hancock, J Holder, B Kurtz, T Bachelor, J Grajczonek, R Tungate

Will never happen - but it puts the move to the Championship in perspective

There's only about £1-£2 difference in any case - even on a par in some cases!

Well, if I was a Poole fan and I had to pay the same price or even a £1 less than last season for that line up, or anything similar, me and speedway in the UK would be done. 

I cannot believe that Poole fans will be turning out in their hundreds let alone thousands to see a line up like that. 

I think Poole will regret the next two seasons. Just my opinion.

It baffles me when people make judgements when no one has been announced! Plus staying away on a permanent basis only means the club would be lost. Surely if the racing is good does it matter who the riders are? I think the standard in the CL is more level than in the PL, so should be close.
